Why we feed?

Pumpkin is a versatile digestive aid for dogs. It addresses both diarrhea and constipation due to its soluble fiber, which absorbs excess water to firm up stools, and its high moisture and fiber content, which helps regulate bowel movements. Rich in nutrients such as vitamins A, C, and E, along with potassium and iron, pumpkin supports overall health. It can also assist with weight management, as its low-calorie yet high-fiber composition helps dogs feel fuller. Additionally, its mild, sweet flavor makes it a natural and healthy treat that most dogs enjoy.

How to feed?

Always start with a smaller amount and gradually increase it to ensure your dog tolerates it well. Ensure the pumpkin is plain, without added sugars, spices, or artificial sweeteners like xylitol, which can harm dogs.

Dosage?

When feeding pumpkin to dogs, it's essential to provide it appropriately to avoid any potential digestive issues. The recommended quantity depends on the size of the dog: Small dogs (up to 20 pounds): 1 to 4 teaspoons of plain canned pumpkin or cooked, pureed pumpkin daily.Medium dogs (20 to 50 pounds): 1 to 2 tablespoons daily.Large dogs (over 50 pounds): 2 to 5 tablespoons daily.
